QUIZ🚨🤔 Which instrument does not connect to the static system? A) Altimeter. B) Vertical speed indicator. C) Vacuum gauge. D) Airspeed Indicator

Altimeter A barometric altimeter consists of a barometric capsule linked to a pointer by a suitable mechanical or electronic system. The pointer moves across the dial in response to changes in barometric pressure. The dial is calibrated in feet, or (less commonly) in metres. Barometric altimeters are provided with a pressure setting control and sub-scale (Kollsman window) so that the altimeter may be calibrated according to the appropriate pressure setting to indicate flight level, altitude above mean sea level, or altitude above ground level. The altimeter provides an output to the transponder system to enable the transmission of the flight level or altitude to the air traffic control.

The supplemental type certificate allows for the replacement of one or both of the 2-inch standby altimeters or 2-inch standby attitude indicators installed in most Learjets.

Isn't this interesting? The envelopes below are a set of ATES (aerodynamic torque equilibrium states) that I calculated 15 years ago using a numerical analysis method, and they are plotted as a graph of pitch angle and rotor rpm according to forward velocity for the same shaft angle. As the shaft angle of the rotor in forward flight decreases, the envelope size gradually decreases. Looking at the graph, it seems as if it will converge to a certain point. Will it really converge to one certain point? Is it really so? Where is that point? Will it vary depending on the rotor?

Lots of things were implemented since my last post. Now, the Acceleration and the Final Segments are computed taking into consideration details like flaps retraction (Ops! I just realized I forgot to set Maximum Continuous Thrust on the operating engine during the Final Segment!...). Some turns are needed, during this segment, to follow the trajectory with the lowest terrain (you can see there is a pretty high obstacle right ahead of the aircraft). I am thinking how to command these turns following the optimum trajectory for obstacle avoidance. The grid was rotated in such a way to be aligned with the runway orientation. Another very subtle characteristic is the takeoff corridor (half-width starting at 90m and finishing at 300m). All obstacles are computed within this corridor. The next iteration will have the computation of net flight path and the turns mentioned before. I need to implement simulations with variable winds and temperature variation with altitude as well. It is a neverending and fascinating project!

See what you’ve been missing! Dwell mode from ICEYE is a game changer. SAR images are not optical photographs—the images are made using radar measurements of distances and those measurements are transformed into an image that can be interpreted. Until now, trained SAR experts were the only ones who could quickly identify man-made objects from the many reflections that create the image. Look at how far we’ve come. ICEYE continues to innovate and bring SAR to a greater potential as a tool for industry, agriculture, insurance, national defense and more. I am super excited to share this update with you! Check it out and leave a comment. Our engineers read what you write, so be sure to tell me your impression of our new dwell mode SAR images. Check out this article and tell me what you think. - Dylan

How satellite tasking pricing works: - Standard price per km2 vs. per scene - Minimum AOI size (minimum price per order) - Minimum AOI width - Priority vs. Standard Pricing - Series / Repeat Coverage Discounts - Volume / Area Size Discounts Am I missing anything? #geospatial #satellitetasking #satelliteimagery #remotesensing #eo #earthobservation #optical #sar #hyperspectral #
